Barron's Magazine Names Jeanie Wyatt to National List of Top 100 Women Advisors

SAN ANTONIO, June 18, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Jeanie Wyatt, CFA, CEO and Chief Investment Officer of South Texas Money Management (STMM) was named to Barron's Magazine's prestigious national list of Top 100 Women Advisors for the fourth consecutive year. Ms. Wyatt is the highest ranked woman from Texas. The Barron's list was also featured in The Wall Street Journal on June 12, 2018.

Ms. Wyatt said, "During the term of this current long bull market, passive or index investing has provided compelling returns versus 'active' investing. These trends usually reverse with shifts in market cycles and volatility. In periods of market volatility, active management historically picks up long-term relative return compared to the indexes. This is due to active managers' risk control measures. The role of a prudent investment manager is to participate in good markets, but to reduce downside risk. Long-term accumulated wealth is built by losing less. It is 'simply the math'."

Wyatt continued, "I am very proud of this ranking and the disciplined hard work and expertise of our South Texas Money Management team."

The national ranking by Barron's reflects the volume of assets overseen by the advisors and their teams, revenues generated by the firms, and the quality of the advisors' practices.

Christian Ledoux, CFA, EVP and Director of Equity Research said, "I congratulate Jeanie and the team on this prestigious award. She has worked diligently to get to this point and has instilled a tried-and-true investment strategy to emphasize downside protection in order to outperform over a full market cycle. That strategy resonates well with clients, especially after a 9-year bull market."
